    Ok.. since you asked.. Ive posted this a few times, but what the hell!

    This is my 1977 GS750B Cafe Racer build project. Its not done yet, but slowly and surely working its way there. Of course, I keep thinking of MORE things I want to do, so it may well never be done, but here she is for now...



    I built the fibreglass seat by hand, and the tank I will be using on it isnt on it in this pic, but I hand beat knee indents into it as well. The whole bike was stripped down to the frame, and Ive added some performance mods, such as progressive dual coil shocks, a GS11000E aluminum boxed swingarm, Tarozzi fork brace, Vance and Hines pipe, hand jetted the carbs (still fine tuning that..sheesh) Stainless brake lines, EBC pads, rebuilt the top end of the motor and she's lowered an inch in the front, bout .5 inch in the rear. Eventually, probably THIS winter, the electrics will all be hidden under the seat box, I may be adding velocity stacks, clipon bars, drilled rotors, rearsets, once i can fab a kicker arm that wont hit the rear brake pedal on the rearsets, and possibly 850 jugs and pistons.

                        lowered front and rear with risers and a tube slide out front and the chrome and black rears off cycle recycle and my bike is an 82 GK. Nice spot.

                          Here's mine below. The minor things... I swapped the bars and put on the kuryakyn iso grips. The paint was done by a friend of mine and her autobody teacher. It is actually rim paint from the Ford catalog I believe.
